DEATH II



Oh Gloomy Death!
Knocking on the door
Piercing the sinews of her heart
Tearing her soul apart
Then, beckoning her slowly...
And tantalizing her with visions
And she, honorably acquiesces to your command
Her dancing eyes lit with laughter
At the splendor of your show
Suddenly you plunge your dagger
She gasps, her heart cold,
Relentlessly but contentedly
You claim her as your own.
